A Nigerian man who claims to have been present at the scene where singer, Seun Kuti allegedly assaulted a police officer on Third Mainland Bridge has revealed what transpired.
Recall that a video of Seun Kuti assaulting a police officer in uniform circulated online over the weekend, sparking outrage from netizens who called for his arrest.
However, the singer claimed in his defense that the officer attempted to kill him and his family members.
Well, a young man who claimed to have witnessed the incident, in a video he shared online has now debunked Seun Kuti’s claim.
He further added that the officer remained professional and did not retaliate throughout the attack by the singer.

If you dey there, as a civilian wey you be, you can’t take it but this man take am. Get it straight, I don’t like police. We don’t like police because of how the police manhandles us civilians.
